&lt;!-- TWO STEPS TO INSTALL HOVER COLORS:

  1.  Copy the coding into the HEAD of your HTML document
  2.  Add the last code into the BODY of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the HEAD of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;HEAD&gt;

&lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"&gt;
&lt;!-- Original:  Alan Branch (webman58@aol.com) --&gt;
&lt;!-- Web Site:  http://www.technom.com --&gt;

&lt;! &gt;
&lt;! &gt;

&lt;!-- Begin
function doColor(item, color, bg) {
item.style.color = color; // changes text color
item.style.backgroundColor = bg; // changes background
}

function undoColor(item) {
item.style.color = "#000000"; // sets color back to black
item.style.backgroundColor = ""; // sets background to default
}
//  End --&gt;
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/HEAD&gt;

&lt;!-- STEP TWO: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document  --&gt;

&lt;!-- With each link, be sure to use the doColor and    --&gt;
&lt;!-- undoColor() functions.  In the doColor() part,    --&gt;
&lt;!-- link1 is the name you gave to the link initially, --&gt;
&lt;!-- a name="link1"  and  'yellow' is the hover text   --&gt;
&lt;!-- text color, and 'black' is the hover background.  --&gt;

&lt;BODY&gt;

&lt;a name="link1" href="http://www.internet.com/" onmouseover="doColor(link1, 'yellow','black');" onmouseout="undoColor(link1);"&gt;internet.com&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;a name="link2" href="http://www.javascriptsource.com/" onmouseover="doColor(link2, 'blue','red');" onmouseout="undoColor(link2);"&gt;javascriptsource.com&lt;/a&gt;
